New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
Most people describe American culture as a combination of Christianity and secularism, one deeply divided today by the tensions between them. Our choice, as individuals and as a society, seems to be between science and "religion." If polytheism is considered by either group, it is considered a way-station in humanity's journey towards worshiping one God, or none at all. Both perspectives are mistaken.
